Recreational Sidemount Diving

The SSI Decompression Diving Specialty shows you how to dive beyond no-decompression limits. You will learn to plan and execute dives to a maximum depth of 40 meters with limited decompression using your recreational diving system and a single decompression tank. You will learn and practice how to effectively use the functions of your dive computer, such as gas exchange or gas integration, as well as remaining air time and ascent time. Using these computer functions will quickly become second nature to you so that you can conduct safe dives with limited decompression without hours of dive planning. Upon completion of the course, you will receive the SSI Decompression Diving Specialty certification, allowing you to explore stunning deep dive sites or large wrecks without the limitation of no-decompression limits. The chances of extending your diving adventures have just increased! Course registration must be received 14 days before the course starts.

Through online learning and open water and confined water dives, the SSI Scuba Diver program gives you the perfect foundation to become an independent and safe diver.

Perfect Buoyancy DescriptionPerfecting buoyancy control is perhaps the most important aspect of becoming a good diver who is comfortable underwater. Good divers know that good buoyancy control reduces breathing gas consumption, reduces the amount of weight and effort required and makes it easy to maintain depth. The SSI Perfect Buoyancy Specialty provides you with all the essential information about the equipment, skills, knowledge and experience you need to use your Total Diving System effectively. This course refines the basic skills you have already learned in your Open Water Diver course and takes them to a new, higher level with the aim of improving your buoyancy and well-being underwater to ensure that you can enjoy every dive.as this specialty does not necessarily have to be taught in open water, it is also ideal for the winter months to bridge this time diving-wise if necessary.prerequisitesMinimum age 10 yearsHave read the theory lesson "Perfect BuoyancyValid diving medical examinationOpen Water Diver certification or equivalentIncluded in the course priceRegistration with SSIstate of the art digital teaching material2 open water divesincluding all tank fillsincluding digital "Perfect Buoyancy" certificationincluding certification as plastic cardThe course will take place if you register 14 days before the start of the course and if at least 4 people register.

Specialty Course Navigation Do you secretly wonder how your instructor always manages to find his way back to the exit or boat?" If so, then the NAVIGATION program is exactly what you need to solve this "mystery". Many of you certainly have a good sense of direction, but unfortunately this will only help you to a limited extent under water, as humans have difficulty orienting themselves in this strange medium under certain circumstances. SSI offers you a structured program on this subject to increase your fun and safety when diving. During the 2 dives of your NAVIGATION program, you will learn various ways of orienting yourself underwater using a compass or natural navigation and determining directions and distances. You will navigate different courses and search patterns, find different marker points and learn how to return to your starting point. If you just want to find out more about navigation, you can also buy the manual without having to take a whole course:Natural navigationNavigation with your compassCombining Natural Navigation & Compass NavigationSpecial situations during navigationNavigation as a sportThe course dates take place with a registration 14 days before the start of the course and a minimum number of 2 students.

Specialty Course Enriched Air Nitrox Have you ever dreamed of having longer no-decompression times to take photos or explore wrecks? Or perhaps you want more safety in terms of decompression when diving?" Nitrox allows you to do just that. Due to the lower nitrogen content in the breathing gas, the body is also less stressed and desaturation times are drastically reduced. Content of the course: Your introduction to NitroxNitrox, your body and the underwater worldYour Total Diving System and NitroxPlanning your Nitrox dives Our special courses can also be booked outside the specified dates, simply call us on 02151^5652234 and we will arrange an appointment.

The course will be held as a webinar Nitrogen is the regulating factor in all recreational diving, as you already know from your Open Water Diver course. Nitrox refers to all gases with an oxygen content of more than 21%. The higher proportion of oxygen reduces the nitrogen content in the breathing gas, puts less strain on the body and significantly shortens your desaturation times. This means that you can significantly extend your no-decompression times at certain depths or dive with a greater safety reserve if you continue to use your "regular" no-decompression times. As many diving centers around the world now offer "Nitrox for free", you can significantly increase your fun factor as there are no additional costs for a special gas mixture. However, you will need this special certification to obtain nitrox. The SSI Enriched Air Nitrox course provides you with the necessary knowledge in the area of planning and using Nitrox to be able to dive with this gas mixture up to 40%. In addition, you will also learn how to obtain these gases at the base, what safety measures apply to obtaining Nitrox and how to analyze the gas. This specialty is also ideal for the winter months to bridge this time with diving.

As a dry suit diver, you can dive warm and comfortable in cold waters all year round. Only dry suit diving opens up the special underwater landscapes of the cold water: dives on the icebergs in the remote Arctic or fascinating places where life is teeming despite the cold.

The best way to do dry suit diving is to take the SSI Dry Suit Diver Specialty course. Here you will gain the necessary knowledge and learn all the skills to dive safely and comfortably in a drysuit. This includes how to handle the special equipment and also how to deal with difficult situations and problems with the drysuit. At the end of the course, you will receive the SSI Dry Suit Diving Specialty certification.

Only dive equipment that fits properly and functions correctly will make you feel comfortable and enjoy your dive. Ultimately, when diving, we are moving in an element that is hostile to human life. You should therefore not ignore the safety aspect of your equipment, as your life ultimately depends on it. Perhaps you now understand why every diver should, sooner or later, have their own equipment. In addition to the questions mentioned above, the SSI Equipment Techniques program deals with the selection, proper adjustment and setup of your total diving system, whether you rent or own it. Owning your own Total Diving System leads to more interest in the operation, maintenance and care of the system as well as the correction of minor defects. Knowledge in all these areas leads to more careful handling of rental equipment, as well as extending the life of your own diving equipment. This will increase your fun and safety both above and below the water. The course dates take place with a registration 14 days before the start of the course and a minimum number of 4 students. Our courses can also be booked for other dates at any time, for information please contact 02841-1698673 or info@abc-tauchparadies.de.
